Fire Damages 4 Tesla Cybertrucks in Seattle
Fire Damages 4 Tesla Cybertrucks in Seattle
Federal and local law enforcement authorities are investigating what caused the Sunday night fire, which came after a series of attacks against Tesla in rebuke of its chief executive, Elon Musk.
Just remember: Tesla vehicles are surveillance machines, and the cops have access to facial recognition software, so I will not be surprised if whoever did this is caught.
Ok so I am in no way saying you should do this but there's 360 cams on them so wrap up warm and run away battery fires let off lots of nasty chems so make sure you don't stand near a burning one for very long.
what do you call 4 cybertrucks on fire?
-
a good start
-
a garbage fire
-
a clustertruck
-
a mystery as to whether they just burst into flames on their own tesla style

The funniest part about Teslas being on fire is that they just have to let them burn to the ground because the battery can’t be put out.
So every cyber truck catastrophic failure is now an act of vandalism? Didn't we know these things caught fire randomly and spontaneously from their history? How far will weak business leaders go to prop up their crappy public parasitizing products?!
What a strange, random occurrence.
Unfortunately lithium batteries have been really unstable recently. It is just a fact of life. Nothing could be done about this.
The cops' facial recognition tech: palantir.
Peter thiel's most wide spread project. Peter thiel, the man who funded JD Vance. Peter thiel, the man who became a billionaire with (f)Elon at PayPal. Thiel, the man who decides who is invited to and what subjects are discussed at the bilderberg meetings.
Peter thiel is the most dangerous person nobody talks about.
Also, balaclavas and ski masks, my friends. And walk differently from your normal walk. Gait detection is also a thing.
The behind the bastards episodes on him are pretty good if people need to get up to speed
From now on, attending demonstrations like
Walk without rythm, and you won't attract the cops.
To mod your gait, an ankle weight (like gym-goers and runners use) on one ankle can help.
Wee pebble in the shoe works too I hear
Yeah a stone in your shoe is an easy way to change gait
What a beautiful picture.
I hope the artist does some more! Look at the beautiful patina!
The only way to make this piece of shit look rad honestly
Probably a faulty battery. Seems to be happening a lot lately. Sounds like Tesla should pull these off the market.
There is no way they are not cheering for everyone of these cars who goes up in flames. They are insured and it's always one less that they have to fix but can't.
Their rates go up, and the bank and underwriters will downgrade their credit rating if this keeps up
In positive news... I think the iridescence caused by the flame really makes that back panel look pretty. Overall an improvement on looks.
Imagine getting to experience the color change up close! It must be a beautiful final moment to watch as your shittily-made Swasticar changes colors while trapping you inside...
Iridescent metal coffins are underrated
Back in the early days of Tesla when they still had the only cool car they ever made, the roadster, they were so proud of their near fireproof battery with lots of smaller cells. I never heard about a Roadster fire, and the first few model Ss were the safest cars on the road. I guess Elon's "fire everyone and save money" strategy took a few years to show through.
The whole: savest car on the road is kind of a bs claim to begin with. They were very "safe" because they are so heavy and the battery is so low that it's near impossible to flip over. You colt take an "unsafe" car and weld 200kg on the bottom of the car and boom, suddenly it doesn't flip anymore.
Suzuki Samurai with skid plates when
Remember he came in after they already existed, was just an investor that demanded he be retroactively called a founder. All their tech up to the CyberCuck were iterations on the original, (sans his corner-cutting you mentioned, which was also terrible).
his teslas skipped out on QC to save money.
When the cops ask if you saw who did it :
President Elon did it. He's on an arson spree.
Jet fuel can't melt steel beams but a car fire can warp a cybertruck apparently
Well, you see, that's because a material doesn't need to be at melting point to lose its structural integrity.
Just to expand on this (entirely correct statement) for anyone curious about it, what specifically happened with the Twin Towers was this:
Each floor was made of a layer of concrete, resting on a steel frame. The frame was comprised of horizontal I-beams which were pinned to the outer walls at each end with L-brackets.
When the fire heated the beams, they softened ever so slightly. Just enough to make them sag a little under the weight. This, in turn, changed the angle at which the beams met the L-brackets, so now instead of all the force going straight down, some of the force was pulling the bracket away from the wall. The brackets, and the bolts that held them, weren't designed for this kind of stress, so they failed. As soon as I've bracket failed, that increased the proportion of the load being carried by the brackets around it, so they failed too (this is called a cascade failure). Once this happened on one floor, all that concrete fell down, smashing through the floor below it, and so on, in an even more extreme example of cascade failure.
So yeah, jet fuel can't melt steel beams, but it can expose design flaws.
Didn't Elon Musk do this by releasing a shitty product that keeps exploding left and right? When four explode at the same lot, you know you've got a safety issue on your hands.
I find that being incinerated has made the one depicted in the article considerably prettier. At least it has both curves and some color now.
to the facial recognition; you need a library of past videos/photos to compare it to. You're driver's license is not enough on it's own, and masks and such like, even 'disruptive' make up can render it useless.
WHOOP WHOOP
IR blasters, work also.
Be careful, it is getting better. I've found my own face on the Internet with just a single (unobscured) image upload. And that included finding faces in a different orientation. Masks probably still defeat it, but it's not as data intensive as it once was.
Groucho glasses are very affordable.
Just a fun fact, the Tesla showrooms aren't owned by a third party like a dealership, they're owned by Tesla, so there's no "screwing over a local business owner" here.
Ah yes, the bastions of ethics, third party dealership owners.
Upvoted for truth.
Warm weather is just starting. It's gonna be a fun summer!
bad quality issues.
Oh no! Anyway...
And nothing of value was lost...
woop woop I guess?
This is the Dems most potent reaction?
Neither half of this sentence even makes sense. Why would you have any reasonable expectation of anything you said?
